Continue readingThe Culver Town Council members reviewed a proposed ordinance last week that would create a fee schedule for clean-up of hazardous materials by the Culver-Union Township Fire Department.
Town Manger Jonathan Leist said it is in the interest of the town to follow Indiana code concerning fees for hazardous material spills and incidents by the fire department.
There would be a $250 charge for each response vehicle while a command or control vehicle would be $100.
For each hour or fraction of on-scene assistance, it would be $150 per response, $50 per response unit and $50 for command or control unit.
The replacement cost of materials used in the incident would be reimbursed. In addition, the cost of the removal of the collection of debris, chemicals, fuel or contaminated materials would be charged.
If the town is charged a fee by an assisting department, that charge would be passed along.
The Culver Town Council members approved the ordinance on the first reading with a unanimous vote. The second and third readings are expected at the council’s next meeting on Feb. 11.
